Update 10.03.01: Jamie has written a short letter about the terrorist attacks on her web site -- jamieker.org. Hope to have some new updates from her in the future. She also wrote an update letter before the September 11 attacks. I am going to try to get a copy of that update letter and try to post it at this web site.
Congrats to Will Kirby on his fine victory on Big Brother 2. He did a great job as did all of the Big Brother 2 houseguests. Here is a link for wrap pictures at Mike Malin's bar Belly. Just click on the link for Big Brother 2 Wrap Party. Also, you will find pictures of Jamie's cool friend Dana Daurey. She made it to Belly, does that mean Jamie isn't too far behind in making an appearance at Belly? Have to wait and see.
Update 10.01.01: Praisejamie.com has officially been open for 1 year. Happy Anniversary!
Update 9.13.01: Praisejamie.com sends out its deepest sympathies and condolences to the World Trade Center and Pentagon victims and their families. I also pray for an end to this needless violence. Martin Gaye sang it best, "War is not the answer. Only love can conquer hate".
Update 7.17.01: Hello, Jamie fans! Jamie was emailed me an update letter with a lot of great news to put up (there is a lot of info, so I placed it on a new page- july17.html). The jamiekern.org web site will be updated soon. Jamie mentions a photograph with Dana Daurey [Providence] in this update, but that photo will be posted on jamiekern.org. I do believe however you can see a thumbnail of the picture at wireimage.com (just do a search for Jamie Kern). Thanks!

Speaking of Big Brother, Jamie is quoted in an article about BB2 in the current edition of US Weekly. The article starts on page 47 in the July 23 issue. Also, there is a small section of the article devoted just to Jamie with a picture of her. They mention the ecrush.com Celebrity Fantasy poll where Jamie has been near the top of the list. Great job, Jamie fans! Thank you. Please check the article out.

Other attendees included the lovely Dana Daurey (Providence), Jennifer Tilly, Aisha Tyler (E! Entertainment), and Josh Souza (Big Brother). There is one small photograph of Jamie with Dana at www.wireimage.com. Just enter Jamie Kern in the search box and you will find it.

Update 4.11.01: Jamie kindly provided me with more information about her recent stay in New York and the show she hosted on btheretv.com. Jamie was in New York for about a week (end of March through beginning of April) and she said that it was 'amazing' there. For the show on btheretv.com, Jamie hung out around New York and interviewed three different people. First, Jamie interviewed Miss Teen USA. Second, she interviewed Ben Pappas, writer for US Weekly entertainment magazine. She said that 'she turned the tables on him' and asked him questions. Apparently, he writes about reality television shows for US Weekly. Way to go, Jamie! Third, she interviewed and hung out with Eddie McGee. She also said that Eddie's father was there too. Sounds like Jamie had a great time and a lot of fun. Jamie will let me know when the show is edited is up for viewing at btheretv.com. I will post an update at that time. Thanks!
